CHALLENGE
Balancing volume, speed, and autonomy
As a leader in the distribution of electrification products and services for professionals, Rexel places data at the heart of its transformation. With more than 3 million sales lines per month and teams spread across the country, Rexel needed to balance data volume, user autonomy, and fast access to information. The first version of its sales performance app generated strong adoption, but the accumulation of information made usage less fluid. The challenge was to maintain the richness of analysis while simplifying the user experience.
APPROACH
Migrating to the cloud for faster deployment

Analytics are precise and shared across purchasing, marketing, pricing, finance, and HR—allowing departments to collaborate on the same KPIs for more targeted action plans with tangible ROI.
Additional Qlik applications have been developed for all business functions, enabling decision-making on the same trusted data while giving users the flexibility to apply personalized analysis criteria.
Qlik turns information into a true competitive advantage, serving both strategy and field operations.
